1,2,1051,2102
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1257,2102 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1257,2102 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 884,2876
2 | 884, 2876 |
2 | 442, 1438 |
221, 719 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 221 x 719 = 635596
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/635596
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1257/884,2102/2876 is 1/635596
The formula of LCM is LCM(a1,a2,a3....,an) = ( a1 × a2 × a3 × .... × an) / GCF(a1,a2,a3....,an) x common factors(if more than 2 numbers have common factors).
We need to calculate greatest common factor of 884,2876 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(884,2876) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(884,2876) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(884,2876) = ( 884 × 2876 ) / 4
LCM(884,2876) = 2542384 / 4
LCM(884,2876) = 635596
